The excellence of Adhan

 Anas bin Malik narrated: The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam used to attack the enemy at fawn. He would listen to the Adhan; so if he heard it, he stopped otherwise he charged. Once on hearing a man say: ´´Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,´´ the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam remarked: ´´He is following Al-Fitrah (Islam).´´ Then hearing him say: ´´I testify that there is no true God but Allah, there is no true God but Allah,´´ the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´You have come out of Fire (of Hell).´´ They looked and found that he was a shepherd.
